He has stated he will not put environmental policy above job creation. Is that an opening to get the Keystone pipeline going?

No, isnce it doesn't seem to create any jobs, and there are states rights issues involved.

Green energy IS jobs. It's American jobs. Put people to work building this stuff and get it online. The sooner we do it, the sooner we can tell the Arabs to go fuck themselves and now they can drink their damn oil.

Let's hope so.

We're barely 5 years from being the largest oil producer on the planet....and 15 from being the largest exporter.

Let's do this thing.

(By the way....where the fuck you been? Break a hip or sumpin?)

Just dealing with life, but all is well for now lol.

And yeah, we need to kick the pipeline/production into gear!
